Cross-political pop culture thrillers. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Tetris (2023) and Argo (2012). We begin by discussing Tetris: the game, the book and the film. We explore the wider world of video gaming and the development of technology. We shift to Argo and our initial reactions and our rewatching reactions. We discuss the 2013 Academy Award ceremony and Argo winning Best Picture. We talk about other connected texts, like Air (2023), Yellowjackets (2021-), Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) and Good Will Hunting (1997).
